The device description explicitly states "The Quantra 2.1 software provides volumetric and area assessment on digital x-ray images of the breast." and "The Quantra software operates on a Windows server...". It does not mention any accompanying hardware components that are part of the device itself.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze biological samples: IVDs are designed to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, tissue, etc., to provide information about a person's health.
- This device analyzes medical images: Quantra™ analyzes digital breast x-ray images, which are not biological samples. It processes and quantifies information from the images themselves.
- The intended use is image analysis and reporting aid: The intended use clearly states that Quantra™ is a software application for use with images and provides information to aid radiologists in assessing breast tissue composition. It is not performing a test on a biological sample.
Therefore, Quantra™ falls under the category of a medical image processing or analysis software, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Density parameters were evaluated using various image data sets and results were compared against predicate performance, when appropriate.
- The measurement accuracy for thickness of fibroglandular tissue was assessed using a breast phantom of known composition.
- The reproducibility of the breast density measurement (Vbd) was assessed using an image dataset of the same patients imaged within a short period of time on two different acquisition systems.
- All density measures were evaluated statistically between CC and MLO views of the same breast and left and right breasts of the same women, using a large database of images from Hologic (Selenia and Selenia Dimensions), GE (Senographe and Senographe Essential), and Siemens (Mammomat Novation) digital breast x-ray systems).
- Images in a database including BI-RADS category scores assigned by 15 readers were used to compare the reader BI-RADS scores to the q abd, O abd. Vbd and Abd measures.

Predicate Device Description:
The Quantra 2.0 software provides volumetric and area assessment on digital x-ray images of the breast. The Quantra software calculates estimates of breast tissue volumes, estimates of breast tissue areas and statistical measures. The Quantra software operates on a Windows server (e.g., Hologic Cenova server) that meets Quantra data input and output requirements and generally is located outside the patient environment.
Comparison with Predicate Device:
The Quantra 2.1 software provides the same breast density and statistical assessments as Ouantra 2.0. The Ouantra 2.1 algorithm is updated to make it independent of certain acquisition parameters related to x-ray spectrum and tube output. Quantra 2.1 includes a new reference population with the more recent Hologic Selenia Dimensions image sets. The method to combine image level results for the per-breast and per-patient breast density measures are updated. Specifically, the results are combined by method of averaging versus maximum (in Quantra 2.0).
Intended Use:
QuantraTM is a software application intended for use with images acquired using digital breast x-ray systems. Quantra calculates volumetric breast density as a ratio of fibroglandular tissue and total breast volume estimates. Quantra also provides area breast
